不同质量配比壳聚糖/聚乙烯醇复合材料组织工程支架的制备:结构及性能比较

Preparation of chitosan/polyvinyl alcohol composite scaffold at different mass ratios:Comparison of structure and characteristics

背景:聚乙烯醇具有与人体组织相近的含水量、良好的生物相容性和较高的机械强度,适合作为组织工程基质材料。但如何改善其细胞亲和性,是将其作为组织再生支架材料的关键。目的:制备壳聚糖/聚乙烯醇复合支架,探讨其作为修复人体损伤组织或器官组织工程支架材料的可行性。方法:将固定相对分子质量和醇解度的聚乙烯醇124与固定脱乙酰度的壳聚糖按不同质量配比复合,分别用成膜法、成颗粒法、冷冻干燥法制备壳聚糖/聚乙烯醇复合支架。测定复合膜的透光率、含水率、膨胀率;测定复合颗粒和复合海绵的含水率;并用扫描电镜观察复合支架横截面的形貌。结果与结论:通过改变复合支架中壳聚糖与聚乙烯醇和含量,制备7种不同质量配比的复合支架。成膜法制备的复合支架,其透光率为70%～80%,含水率为121.2%～162.5%,膨胀率为60.3%～133.7%;成颗粒法和冷冻干燥法制备的复合支架,其含水率分别为82.0%～461.2%和280.8%～1939.0%。聚乙烯醇与壳聚糖的质量配比为0.75/0.15时,复合支架的综合性能最好。扫描电镜观察显示,聚乙烯醇与壳聚糖的质量配比为0.75/0.15时,用冷冻干燥法制备的复合支架其内部结构规整,呈蓬松纤维状,有较好的力学性能和较高的含水率。

BACKGROUND：Polyvinyl alcohol（PVA）has similar water content as human tissues,good biocompatibility and high mechanical strength,thereby being utilized as tissue-engineered matrix material.However,the modification in cellular affinity benefits the function as tissue regeneration scaffold materials.OBJECTIVE：To prepare chitosan（CS）/PVA composite scaffold and explore the feasibility of serving as a scaffold for tissue engineering.METHODS：Scaffolds of CS/PVA was fabricated by blending PVA-124 with various amounts of CS using film forming,particle forming,and free-drying methods.Water content,light transmittance,and swelling ratio were tested.Scanning electron microscope was used to observe the configuration of the cross section.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION：A total of 7 different proportional scaffolds were obtained with different PVA and CS dosage.The composite film showed light transmittance between 70%-80%,high water content between 121.2%-162.5% and swelling ratio between 60.3%-133.7%.Composite particle and sponge obtained water content between 82.0%-461.2% and 280.8%-1 939.0%.Composite scaffold with the amount ratio of PVA 0.75 g/CS 0.15 g exhibited the best performance.Scanning electron microscope showed that at a mass ratio of PVA 0.75 g/CS 0.15 g,the scaffold prepared by freeze-drying method had regular,fluffy inner structure,with good mechanics and high water content.
